(Episode 14)
- Take the preserved tangerines. - Okay.
I hope it goes well.
You have nothing to worry about.
He's never let us down, you know.
- You look dashing. - Oh, Se Eun is here.
- Hi. - Hi, Se Eun.
Why are you all waiting out here?
Guys, you should get going. It'll take a while to get there.
- Hurry. - See you later.
- All right. - Drive safely.
- We'll see you later. - All right.
- I'll drive. - Okay.
Yes, you should.
Drive safely.
Bye!
- Joon Young. - Yes?
Are you nervous?
Yes, I'm a little nervous.
I think your father will scold me a lot.
For making you put up with so much for years.
My dad isn't scary at all. He's very cute.
Ms. Baek.
Is something bothering you?
What about you? Are you worried about something?
You're the hottest star now.
Worrying won't solve anything.
A member of a girl group? Or is it an actress?
What kind of girl rejected you?
There's a guy who doesn't like me.
What?
There's a movie I really want to be in,
but the writer doesn't like me.
The dumb writer with bad vision?
What is the problem?
(Writer Lee Soo Jae)
I won't know unless you tell me.
Are you trying to blame me now?
This is ridiculous.
- We'll stop there. - Oh, okay. Thank you.
Hello. I'm here with my passion!
I'm number 44, Kim Cheol. I'll begin now.
Look.
Look at the brothers' portrait on the wall!
All right, we'll stop there.
The four of you may leave.
Let the next group in.
The next group, come on in.
We'll start with number 45, Oh Min Joon.
(Lee Soo Jae, Lee Kyung Suk, Nam Jae Hyun)
Hello, I'm number 45, Oh Min Joon.
What's going on?
What happened, Ms. Lee?
You guys have a knack for surprising me.
Is Mr. Kim outside?
No, I didn't tell anyone at my agency.
I'll get in trouble for this.
Well, then I'll start now.
My gosh.
Min Joon, you did such a great job today.
You told me that I have too much.
I kept thinking about it.
I know that you're biased against me.
I am insecure about the fact...
that I used to be in a boy group.
And to tell you the truth, that's why I haven't even been...
doing anything...
to challenge myself.
I've been acting like I don't have any insecurities,
but I should break out of this myself.
It'll be hard, and it does scare me.
But I should do everything I can to break out of it.
Only then, I'll have no regrets.
It's okay even if I don't get the role.
I probably won't get it anyway.
Isn't that really MJ?
It can't be him. He'd never go out dressed like that.
Hello.
Good.
Eat up.
Okay.
You only have one table in your restaurant?
How are you going to make a living with my sister with just one table?
He's a chef. He'll definitely make sure she eats well.
By the way, why did you quit working as a cop?
I heard you always got great performance scores.
It wasn't really the right job for me,
and I really like to cook.
Then I guess you also might quit cooking if you suddenly feel like...
it's not the right job for you.
Bring some alcohol.
Thank you.
I'll pour you a glass.
Go ahead and drink the whole glass.
Okay.
Do you like honey bread?
Yes, I do. Gosh, thank you.
You must be tired.
No, I'm okay.
I'll be off now.
- Drive safely. - Okay.
What do you think?
He's really manly, and he knows how to drink.
He's so handsome.
How is that ever going to help with having a good marriage?
What are you talking about?
A handsome husband makes marriage life a lot more interesting.
I thought he'd just be a stingy fellow from Seoul.
- But I guess I was wrong. - Right?
He looks really weak, but he does seem to have some guts.
I'm fine as long as Se Eun likes him.
I like him very much.
It must've been really tiring.
No, it was fine.
But I feel like no one really liked me except your mom.
Especially your dad.
That was my dad's happy face.
Really?
Then I'm relieved.
You found it for me again.
I promise I won't lose it this time.
These guys never showed up when I always told them...
that I wanted to hang out.
But they called as soon as I told them that you came.
This is why they say you can never trust humans.
Where are we going? We passed by so many restaurants.
Just follow me. We're almost there.
- There they are. - Over here!
- Chief On! - Hey, you guys.
- Hello. - Hey.
- Gosh, you haven't changed at all. - Neither have you.
My gosh.
- My goodness. - Mr. On Joon Young.
- I missed you. - Have you been well?
- Yes, of course. - My gosh.
- Let's go. - It's this place.
Hey, Snakehead.
Long time no see, Chief On.
- Hey. - Snakehead still uses knives.
But he never uses them on humans anymore.
Hello.
- Hello. - Hey.
You must be hungry. Just wait a little bit.
I should give you good one...
so that you can enjoy a lot.
My gosh, it's been five years since our team gathered together...
for a team dinner and had beef.
- You're right. - It's been so long.
Hello, my wife. It's your husband.
I got here safely. I'll go back after I eat a lot of Korean beef.
Yes, okay. I love you. Bye.
Do you love her that much? Are you so happy that you might die?
Why would I die when I'm so happy?
My gosh.
Gosh, what's wrong with you?
Can you pour me a glass?
You look well.
Gosh, of course.
Snakehead comes to church every Sunday.
He's no longer the Snakehead we used to know.
He's like a church deacon.
I got rid of all the memories and connections I had in the past.
I don't care that they call me disloyal.
Because to me, she's my world and paradise.
Good job. You made the right choice.
What about you? Did you marry Young Jae?
What? Why?
I'm getting married soon.
What? You're getting married soon?
What? With whom?
With Corporal Min Se Eun.
Corporal Min?
Are you talking about Officer Min?
The officer that you captured as hostage.
My goodness gracious. What a huge surprise.
That's great news.
I can't believe you ended up with her.
You know what? You should bring her here someday.
I'll serve you guys with extra quality ribeye...
as a means to apologize for grabbing her as hostage.
Okay.
I'm going to lock you up in jail if you don't make her happy...
since I yielded her to you.
What are you talking about?
My gosh, I envy you guys. I'm the only one left alone.
Hey, hey.
You don't even have a wife that can cook hangover soup for you.
Why do you keep pouring alcohol for yourself?
Hey, you guys. Fill up your glasses.
Let's fill our glasses up. Come on.
Okay, raise your glasses.
Cheers to Chief On's blessed marriage.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
My gosh, this is incredible.
(Rice on sale)
It's delicious.
Hello?
Oh, hello.
Young Jae.
- Hello. - Hello.
Let's sit.
Why did you want to see me?
I wanted to apologize for what I did last time.
It's fine.
I wanted to have some talk with you too.
Shall we order something to drink first?
Let's do that.
Welcome.
In the airport?
Se Eun, you're more courageous than you look.
I didn't know I could do that either.
That's cool.
After all,
you need that much courage...
to gain someone's heart.
I can tell why Joon Young likes you.
Young Jae, there's something I want to ask you.
What is it?
By any chance, are you thinking of seeing another man?
He's such a nice man though.
I think you two will get along well with each other too.
I'm sorry.
Please forget about what I just said.
Will that make you be more at ease?
Sorry?
Set me up with the nice guy.
- Hello? - It's me.
- Who... - Se Eun's dad.
- Hello, sir. - Congratulations.
My family and I have decided to accept you...
as my son-in-law and in-laws.
Marry her within this year.
What's this reaction? Aren't you happy?
Yes, I'm happy.
Will that...
make you be more at ease?
Sorry?
Set me up with the nice guy.
I'm such a loser.
I guess you called because you're curious.
I was actually about to call you.
Yes.
Your father called me.
My dad called you?
Yes.
To give me his permission to marry you.
See? I told you that you don't need to worry about my dad.
He wants our families to meet soon.
He also said he wants us to get married before the year ends.
Yes, we should.
Sweet dreams, Joon Young.
You too. Sweet dreams.
- I'll call you tomorrow. - Okay.
I haven't even been doing anything to challenge myself.
I've been acting like I don't have any insecurities,
but I should break out of this myself.
It'll be hard, and it does scare me.
But I should do everything I can to break out of it.
Only then, I'll have no regrets.
You think that you're the only person of substance, don't you?
You're wrong. You're biased and prejudiced.
What do you even really know?
You don't even know how to give or receive love.
You're such a coward.
(Soo Jae)
The person you're trying to reach is unavailable.
Leave a message after the tone.
(Joo Ran)
(Contacts)
(My Dear Young Jae)
Soo Jae!
I watched all of your movies even though I was abroad for a few years.
What did you think of them?
They were very cruel but amazing.
I was so happy whenever I heard or read about you.
I've come a long way to get to where I am now.
I can't say that you're the biggest contributor to my success,
but you're probably one of the top three contributors.
But I never even had a chance to take you out for a drink.
It always made me feel so indebted.
Gosh, don't say that.
Enough about me. I read about how you managed...
to turn your passion for cooking into your career.
That made me incredibly happy.
Oh, that magazine interview? I didn't want to do it.
By the way,
did you come to see me because there's something going on?
No, not at all. I decided to come and see you...
for no specific reason.
Just out of the blue, I got the urge to come and see you...
so that we can sit down like this...
and have a few drinks.
Thanks for coming to see me.
So what about you?
Is anything new with you?
Well...
I'm getting married soon.
Well, you're definitely at the right age to get married.
Congratulations, seriously.
There are many puzzling things in life.
Chances are, you'll never find out what they are...
unless someone tells you.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
No, I'm not following.
Right, I don't know either. No one's telling me.
All right, I'll tell you about one of my favorite movies.
There's this famous line in "Bungee Jumping of Their Own."
"Let's say that we place..."
"a small needle like this somewhere in the world."
"Then we'll drop a grain of wheat from the sky."
"The chance of it landing right on the needle."
"That incalculable probability is what determines..."
"with whom we cross paths in life."
We meet those whom we meet based on such inconceivable probabilities.
Such ties can't be cut off easily even when you're apart.
Even if you're no longer with them and can't see them,
you should wish each other all the best.
That's the gist of what I'm trying to say.
Right.
I'm talking about us.
Sorry?
- Right. - Yes.
- Thanks for the drinks. - Gosh, it's my pleasure.
My gosh, I'm sorry. Our card machine isn't working at the moment.
Do you have any cash?
I got this. What's our total?
- Oh, sure. - Gosh!
No, wait. There must be an ATM machine nearby.
Where's the closest one?
- There isn't any around here. - I'll pay for this.
- Your total is only 75 dollars. - No, wait. Don't.
Call technical support now. Why is it broken?
- No, you can't pay for this. - I'm really sorry.
- What should we do, then? - I'll go take some cash out.
Goodness, I'm sorry...
No. I mean, thank you.
Don't mention it.
Did you call for a driver?
- Yes. - Hello.
Soo Jae, they only accept cash, so I'll pay for this.
- How much is it? - It's 30 dollars.
Here's 30 dollars.
Thank you.
You see,
rather than saying sorry,
I'd like to thank you.
Thanks for everything.
It's no problem at all.
Please drive safely.
It's my first time doing chauffeur service for a motorcycle.
Go home safely, Soo Jae.
Should we send a wedding invitation...
to the science teacher who no longer work with us?
Who are you talking about?
You know that guy who used to only meet his wife on the weekends?
He recently transferred to the area where his wife lives.
Oh, him.
That cheesy-looking science teacher...
that sang a duet song with you when we had a gathering?
Send one if you want.
What a petty little man.
If he'd kept working as a cop, so many of his colleagues would come.
But there's not a single employee...
nor a part-timer at his restaurant.
So who is he going to invite?
Se Eun's a cop.
Are you out of your mind? All that money will be going to her family.
Oh, right.
We'll be fine with 200 seats, right?
It's our first time marrying off a child, so we should ask for 300.
It'll be embarrassing if there aren't enough seats for our guests.
My gosh, a wedding ceremony is a small event...
where two people make a promise that they're going to start a family.
But the moment her family said yes,
you instantly started thinking about money.
My gosh, you have no sense of romance.
Why are you being immature and talking about romance?
I'm just relieved that at least one of our children...
is getting married before our retirement.
I just don't get why Ri Won's being so selfish.
Does she not think about her parents and her kid?
Exactly.
Let's just wait and see.
This one.
That's good.
Isn't today your day off?
I have to urgently go to the suburbs for work.
But you said you'll go shopping with me today.
But I have to go on a business trip to the suburbs.
Why didn't you tell me?
I'm telling you right now.
Are you going by yourself?
With Mr. Um.
You're going with that indecent punk?
I'll see you when I get back, sweetheart.
Bye.
Sang Hyun,
do you feel insecure by any chance?
No.
Yes, I feel insecure.
Even if I do end up breaking up with you,
I promise I'll share when and how that's going to happen.
It's never going to happen all of a sudden.
So don't be too worried.
Come here for a second.
See you.
You look great.
You look incredible. You should be confident.
Okay. I should do well.
Corporal Min's introducing me to her.
Okay. Don't forget to report to us later on.
Okay, I'll make sure I give you good news.
He looks so happy.
People need to date someone new in order to forget their past love.
Let's get out of here.
I can't wait for dinner.
Joon Young.
Chief On.
It's been so long.
- Have you been well? - Of course.
My gosh, you still look so handsome.
You look even better now.
You should watch out.
I read the online blogs,
and there were a lot of pretty customers that came here.
You should sit down.
- Hello. - Hello.
Please take a seat.
This looks great.
It looks so delicious.
I always ask my husband if we could go eat...
at a fancy restaurant, but he never takes me to one.
He only takes me to barbecue joints.
I'm so sick of it.
This is so delicious, Chief On.
- It's good, isn't it? - Yes, it's really delicious.
It's Officer Ko.
Hey.
Really?
Okay, I hope you feel better.
Yes, okay. I'll see you tomorrow.
My gosh, this is unbelievable.
Officer Ko already said goodbye to his date.
I see.
Apparently, she just sat down for a while...
and left after saying she needs to go.
That was so rude of her even if she didn't like him that much.
You said you don't know her that well, right?
I really don't like this woman.
But she apparently paid for the meal.
Is she trying to show off that she used to study abroad?
That's too bad. You should keep eating.
I just don't get why a divorcee is being so picky.
Corporal Min...
set our colleague up on a blind date today.
But I don't think it worked out too well.
The meat is so tender.
You don't need to see me off.
I really enjoyed the meal, Chief On.
Or should I call you Chef On now?
You guys should go back inside.
- Go home safely. - Okay.
Have a great time together. Bye.
I really enjoyed your meal today.
I think she really enjoyed it as well.
You should sit down and wait.
No, I'll help so that it'll end faster.
No.
I'll do it.
I felt sorry, but I really couldn't stay any longer.
What are you doing?
You called me here, but you had all the lights off.
She was so happy...
to see you today.
Why did you...
arrange a blind date for Young Jae?
What's gotten into you?
Why in the world did you do it?
What about you then?
What?
Why didn't you tell me...
that she was your ex-girlfriend?
You know what?
For the past four years of our relationship,
this is your first time getting mad at me.
And that's because of...
Young Jae.
I'm sorry...
for making you bothered.
It'll never happen again.
I'll get off here.
The traffic might continue on. You should take a detour.
Be careful driving home.
You remember that?
When we went on a trip to Hong Kong,
you carried that heavy thing all the way back to Korea,
saying it'd look perfect with our store.
You didn't hesitate to bring...
whatever you found something that would fit in our store.
I went to get acupuncture in my back for a week then.
I cried, laughed, and experienced all kinds of incidents...
here in the store.
This place is like my husband and child.
This is like my first safe house too.
What's wrong with you today?
You don't seem tipsy either.
Noo Ri will be in charge of this store for the time being.
She's more determined and ambitious than the past you.
She'll do a good job.
Joo Ran.
What is the matter?
Young Jae.
I have cancer.
Well, yes.
Is there anything serious?
First off, take a look here.
The lump you see on this side...
Currently,
the cancer has progressed to its third stage.
It's impossible to conduct an operation on this.
We should reduce the size of the tumor...
through chemical treatment and radiotherapy first.
If we get to conduct an operation on you,
we'll have to remove your uterus, pelvis viscerales, and...
Are you okay?
In case of stage 3 patients,
the probability of 5-year survival after the treatment...
is of course lower than that of stage 2 or 3 patients.
Even if it's completely treated,
you won't be able to get pregnant.
It's not like...
people can choose whether to have a disease.
I'm no exception,
but I'm so flustered...
and mad.
I'm frightened.
Thinking...
Thinking how hard I tried to have a baby...
makes me embarrassed too.
And there's one more.
When I saw that woman,
I was reminded of Soo Jae first of all.
He must've been so scared.
He must've been so frightened.
He must've suffered so much.
It was something that couldn't be consoled with any words.
He must never have been okay during those times.
I knew nothing about it,
but I acted as if I knew it all...
and understood it all.
I was so easy to bring up his painful memories...
and talked all big, thinking that would comfort him.
But that fool...
smiled, saying it was okay.
Young Jae.
I have a favor to ask of you.
I'd really like you to do it for me.
I don't want to tell this to anyone else.
I don't want to show it to anyone else either.
Okay.
Young Jae, let's go.
Mom.
I want to eat a lot of food and get chubby...
so that I can become the moon.
- Why the moon? - Because it's everywhere.
We can see it from our place, and last time,
it was at the beach.
It's at the playground as well.

- Hello? - Joon Young.
It's me, Young Jae.
I wanted to call someone,
but I had no one to call.
The people that I love...
all get sick...
or leave me.
Young Jae.
- We shouldn't be... - I know.
I should leave.
I'll leave too.
I will leave.
Hey, Young Jae.
- Miss, miss! - Miss.
- Young Jae. - Are you okay? Are you hurt?
- My gosh, I think she's here alone. - Lee Young Jae!
